Dear venerable Master Ching Hai,
You
have transformed my life so beautifully that I can hardly find words
to express my inner feelings. Your great wisdom, infinite love and
teachings have made me a new person, and my view of life has changed
tremendously. I pray that the Highest God will bestow longevity
on You, so that You can lead more people toward wisdom, the Light,
and the path of eternal liberation.
For
a very long time, dear Master, I have been praying to God to guide
me on to the right path. Hes answered me by bringing me to You.
Indeed, You are God's gift to us sentient beings!
Dear
Master, forgive me for writing such a long letter, because I want
very much to let You know how the Father guided me to You, and how
You have come into my life.
Born
into a religious family, I thought little about God until my father's
death, which changed everything. I often missed my father and kept
asking myself, "Where is he now? Is he all right? Is he suffering
any pain?" My father was an only son, so after his death, everyone
seemed to discard our family. Each night, I spent a long time gazing
into the unfathomable sky, and the stars above seemed to tell me,
"He is somewhere in the sky."
As the
eldest son of the family, I often wondered whether I could bring
real "felicity" to my family. Each time this thought came
into my mind, I would have a sleepless night. Finally, I started
praying sincerely, and decided to put myself in God's hands, and
let Hirm guide me toward the path of Truth and take care of everything
for me.
After
graduating from the university with a degree in information technology,
I stayed in my country, Cameroon, to work. Each time I encountered
difficulties and felt worried, I would pray to God and ask Hirm
to help me solve my problems. I went to church to pray every Sunday,
and participated in church activities. However, I failed to feel
contented, so I stopped going to church after a while. Nevertheless,
I continued to pray at home and study the Bible, hoping to find
answers to all kinds of doubts in my heart.
Later,
I left Cameroon for South Africa, and before my departure prayed
to God, "Oh! Father! My life belongs to You and I have entrusted
myself in You. I will comply with Your will. Please guide me Home."
When I arrived in Johannesburg, I stayed with a family of Quan Yin
practitioners. Their way of life touched me deeply and I received
much mental support and love from them. Later they gave me the sample
booklet, The Key of Immediate Enlightenment, but I did not read
the booklet immediately.Three
weeks later, I discussed the Bible with one of the practitioners
and was quite amazed by his understanding of the scriptures. His
elaboration totally coincided with the world I had been seeking.
When I asked him how he came to know so much,
